How to Make It Easier to Find the Best Schools for a Child With Cerebral Palsy

When your child has cerebral palsy, it's critical that you find a school that fits your child's unique needs. You need a school that will make the accommodations your child needs to excel while providing the high academic standards and studies that will benefit your child both now and in the future.

Unfortunately, finding the best schools for a child with cerebral palsy can be challenging. Some schools may not provide the accommodations your child needs; others may not even understand your child's limitations. DoNotPay can make it easier to find the best schools for a child with cerebral palsy.

What to Look For in a School for a Child With Cerebral Palsy

The search for the best school for your child with cerebral palsy is often complicated. You may have to look for things that other parents may not even consider.

• Does the school offer the type and level of services that your student needs? For example, will your child be in a full inclusion program that keeps them in the classroom, or a special education classroom where their specific needs will be met?
• Does the school have experience dealing with students with cerebral palsy?
• Does the school offer robust academic options?
• Does the school have the budget to offer the level of support your child needs for specific services?
• Is school mobility accessible? Many children with cerebral palsy have significant mobility challenges, and a school that is not mobility accessible could prove very difficult for the child to navigate.

For many parents, the search for the ideal school for a child with cerebral palsy starts in preschool and continues even as that child moves through the college years.

The Best Private Schools for Students with Cerebral Palsy

There are several schools throughout the United States that have been identified as among the best for students with learning disabilities or other special needs, including cerebral palsy.

There are also many great local schools that are set up to handle the needs of students with cerebral palsy. In fact, many students with cerebral palsy benefit heavily from having the opportunity to integrate with their peers. Finding the right school, however, can be highly challenging.

How to Find the Best School for a Child With Cerebral Palsy on Your Own

For many parents, finding the best school for a child with cerebral palsy can be intensely stressful. You want to be sure that you choose the best possible school for your child: one with all the benefits your child needs in order to be successful. At the same time, you may find yourself needing to wade through a huge amount of information, much of which seems to be contradictory or difficult to manage. You may need to:

1. Check with local schools and school districts to find out about their accommodation plans.
2. Sit on hold with local school boards, principals, and more.
3. Wait, often for a long time, for the answers you need.
4. Keep getting back in touch with schools when you fail to get the response you need.

Unfortunately, finding the right school for a child with cerebral palsy can be both frustrating and time-consuming.
